“ The Southeast Connector project has afforded increased economic opportunities for businesses located right here in our community , and will continue to do so as construction advances ,” said State Representative Nicole Collier . From the beginning , TxDOT has made this project community driven . They have considered and included community input and feedback and demonstrated first-hand how government works for , and with , the people of Texas .
Michael Morris , North Central Texas Council of Governments Director of Transportation , said the Southeast Connector project is a terrific example of partnerships between local government , the Regional Transportation Council , and TxDOT .
“ It demonstrates transportation improvements at a neighborhood level , city level , regional level , and state level . The project brings added capacity , improved mobility , opportunities to improve air quality , and economic development opportunities to our region ,” Morris said .
In advance of construction , the land at I-20 and Park Springs Boulevard in Arlington has been cleared for use by TxDOT . The southwest corner will be the home of the materials testing laboratory . The remaining three corners will be used for materials delivery and storage yards .
